Proving that body wood has a resonant frequency is only proof that body wood has a resonant frequency (which, as far as I know, nobody is arguing); it's not proof of body wood affecting the tone of a solid body electric guitar. You're just saying that it has to make a difference without any evidence that it actually does.
Hi and thanx for reply. From my point of view, sorry but yes, you are a bit late tot the party, i have allready left (see post above)! But i can reply to your meta-comment quoted in-parenthesis above:
No, on the contrary it seems like quite many is arguing about that. In the report earlier linked (the only university report seen in this thread so far, and its quite poor) one of the statements really are "a solid guitar body has no resonance at all". Wrong. Also, the guy in the video (Gledisons link) really need unresonating guitarwood if the formulas he's showing as "proof" shallnot run amok. So, its good that you have no problem accept that solid guitarwood (necks, bodies) really does resonate. From there, the following question should be: "What happens if a piece of matter with a given resonance frequencey meets a string vibrating with the same frequency?" There is answers to that question, but again, sorry, im out!
And please don't tell me i am running out of evidence; i dont need that.
Cheers and happy playing!
